Well, well well here is a video for you! She is only a FAN of Disrupters if they support her views. Why is she calling the TEA party terrorists etc. Pelosi to Disrupters your advocacy is very American! :eek


‘06 FLASHBACK: PELOSI TELLS ANTI-WAR PROTESTERS ‘I’M A FAN OF DISRUPTORS’


Towards the end of the video.

January 17, 2006: "So I thank all of you who have spoken out for your courage, your point of view. All of it. Your advocacy is very American and very important."

Breitbart.tv » ‘06 Flashback: Pelosi Tells Anti-War Protesters ‘I’m a Fan of Disruptors’



MORE:

Pelosi remembers when Dissent "was" PAtriotic! Told hold elected officials accountable again. We may not always agree on a resolution of what we have to deal with but, That doesn't mean you shouldn't be persistent, dissatisfied and relentless in pulling us over! BUT........ Now she see's them as Nazis!

Not long ago, Nancy Pelosi and the left called dissent the highest form of patriotism. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, they don't see it that way.

Remember when dissent was patriotic? - YouTube

Default The real difference between the Tea Party and Occupy Wall St.

It's real simple: The Tea Party are tools of the Republican Party (which is controlled by lobbyists, many from Wall Street) while the Occupy Wall Streeters are disgusted with both parties and see little difference in their policy toward the middle class.

Maybe some of them are... but that is mostly because the tea party was hijacked by pro-war democrats and republicans

Its original purpose was to cut spending and cut taxes...

LOL! And the OWS are tools of the Democratic Party which is controlled by lobbyists, many from Wall St and Unions... where as the Tea Party are folks from all walks of life, all ages, who want real change in taxes and regulations which has been killing our economy. The big difference is that the Tea Party have an actual message for our government and are taking it to the right people... our government. Where as the youth and hippies in OWS are just out there trying to bring attention to themselves and their selfish "needs". You're right, it is very simple!

Just because you don't get it doesn't mean everyone else doesn't get it.

"selfish needs" (?) versus tax breaks for billionaires and no regulations on business.

Like I said, tools of Wall Street. Keep taking your "message" to News Corp. and they will be sure to pass it on to the rest of the group.

Also, TEA Party people use deodorant and don’t defecate on police cars.
